yes and 100% of sat fat recommendation..... sounds yummy tho!! I'd go w/ the skim milk and reg. coconut milk and reduce it to 2 Tbsp. The new reduced fat creamy vanilla ice creams are awesome and would work too. add a dash of coconut extract if not feeling the full coconut taste. Kathy, RD,CDE

This may detract from the full fat taste but I'm going to try this with skim milk, lite coconut milk and frozen vanilla yogurt...it sounds great!!

I agree with the high calorie comment. Unfortunately the "average" person in the US consumes too many calories - our obesity prevalence is proof. The recipe looks great, but I would divide it into three servings.

For the average person eating three meals a day, a meal should be between 500-700 calories. For someone who needs about 2,000 calories a day and has eaten three 500 calorie meals, a 490 calorie snack would be appropriate. - Andrea Garen, MA, RD, Project Manager, Meals Matter
